Heading over to @subtextbookstore.bsky.social for a special poetry reading. We'll be listening to the works of Renee Nicole Good.

Raw. Meaningful. Packing soft paper tissue just in case.

It is also probably unrealistic, but I stand by it. From a purely ethical standpoint.

What if you just let him cook a little longer.

Maybe once he's medium rare he'll be the perfect temperature for the moment.

Counterpoint. As a Minnesotan, i don't want to stop this fight until the are DEFEATED, not just retreated. I don't want them moving these atrocities to another state just so I can feel safe.

I want this ended right fucking here. Forever.

Every day on my way to work, just a normal commute:

1. Fist pump out my window at the half dozen heroic sentries patrolling Harding HS, East St Paul
2. Give the finger to Whipple from E River Pkwy near Cleveland
3. Waving "Hello" to Good Trouble snowpersons on W River Pkwy N of Lake St.

You're right, which is why I literally wish we hadn't spent the last decade desensitizing the word "literally" in everyday conversation. Because this time it is significant.

Ruby looks like the kind of badass chick that will tolerate death metal as long as it comes with delightful snacks and equal attention at a dungeons and dragons table game or whatever. :D

* next week is my goal, but I'm learning how to set up and work with non-profits on the fly, and there are occasional points of learning and waiting, but I promise I'm doing my best. It has been a helluva week. Bless you all who are helping!

Women: The must subjectified of us, and simultaneously, the most actively courageous and involved in fixing it.

Never tell me women aren't fit to be leaders. Ever. Women are the leaders.

The news is talking about our peaceful presence being felt, and about almost NONE of the lawless atrocities they commit every single day. It is surreal. Those stories need to be told.

Yep, and here in MN it was, sorry *is* the Somali community that they used as their excuse to invade.

hha. My cat is super weird. She cuddles HARD, but only as a sub. She has to be on the floor with four paws firmly planted. A total Power Bottom. She freaks the hell out if you try to pick her up.

I'm so happy. MSP Sky is just enjoying the day with their family, posting pet photos, and not sharing the traumatic glory of another successful day inspiring the world.

Post your pets! I wanna see em!

Fair Point. Counterpoint. It was a benefit concert they did for nothing but to benefit others.
